[HTC Droid DNA] Joco1289:
Okay so I'm not sure if this is an htc thing or not but it won't default save phone numbers to my gmail account. I flash different roms so when I wipe data I am surprised to have missing contacts. Maybe I'm completely overlooking something in settings but can anyone please help? It doesn't ask where I want to save the numbers either I came from a Nexus and everything was just thru google lol

Edit: Figured out how to save them to google but is there a way to just default it to that?
[HTC Droid DNA] dragonstalker:
When you store a new contact. make sure that the second field you choose and click google. I'll talk to some of the guys and see if theres a way to make that to google as a tweak. Been past experience that Android is self learning. After you save so many to google. contacts should start defaulting to google on its own. Not sure if DNA still holds this feature.

Made It...now, the waiting...

The petition made it's goal:

http://www.androidauthority.com/phone-unlocking-petition-goal-159064/

Now comes the waiting (like Tom Petty said, It's the Hardest Part).

This must be technically akin to what people with a history of cancer feel like while waiting for their own biopsy results.

Crossing my digits here, that was such a dumb, insensitive, openly 'corporate-paid' law...too quickly passed, too.

Nobody needs a chastity belt for their smartphone--it negates the intrinsic 'smart' of the phone itself, even!

How many people enjoy the freedom to change their mind on anything? How many dealerships will turn away repair work on another brand car?

Right now, this law is actually the worst kind of thing for U.S. trade, even...precisely timed as we discover how obsessed the Chinese government is with our trade secrets rather than even our military ones...

How can we compete with that, when they will not only be able to manufacture Android phones from any designs they might 'come across', as well as make them with any OS they please, at half any current U.S. prices? I'm sure AT&T, in all their wisdom, has a plan for that, though, should it ever even happen (beginning with scoffing).

No, they probably have vested interests already buying stock in generic Chinese phone manufacturing plants, themselves...

hmm...

[HTC Sensation] mk_00:
I have a T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G, and I'm having an interesting problem. When WiFi is connected and I answer an incoming call, there is no sound from the phone speaker and the microphone doesn't work. The phone rings as usual, I answer as usual, and the phone shows a call in progress as usual; but I cannot hear anything, and the caller cannot hear me. With WiFi disconnected, I have no problems answering calls and I do not experience any issues. I have no problems placing calls, regardless of the WiFi state. If I enable WiFi calling, I also have no problems placing or receiving calls. I have confirmed these symptoms by calling myself with Google Voice.

I'm currently using the 3.32 TMOUS firmware from this thread, and the "stock" ROM from here. I have tried most combinations of firmwares 3.32 TMOUS, 3.32 Universal, and 3.33 Universal with the "stock" ROM, CM 9.0.0 stable, CM 9.1.0 stable, and CM 10.1 from this thread; and all have the same problem. I wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache before installing every ROM, and I reinstall a ROM every time I change the firmware. I have S-OFF with the revolutionary tool, but I do not have superCID.

I attached my logcat output of a call received with WiFi connected with the problem and with WiFi disconnected with everything functioning properly. I did my best to isolate the parts where the calls happened. While I don't know too much about this kind of debugging, I think the problem may have to do with these errors:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rambobin0:
Hi,

I have a Koodo Galaxy S2X and for the last week I've been trying the great JB roms presented here. I really like JB and would want to use one of the rom as my DD, but I've been having the same problem with all the JB roms I've tried (4.1.x and 4.2.x).

I use Touchdown to read my Hotmail account and it is configured to use push. The problem is that when on 3G, I can see in Touchdown logs that the push thread times out every 30 sec (server failed to respond) and TD is constantly connecting back. It uses a lot of battery, maybe 10% per 1-2 hours. This problem does not occur when using WIFI. I don't have the problem either with ICS roms, TD barely uses any battery power and I can see in the logs that nothing times out.

Another thing I see with JB roms is that if I don't use the phone for a couple of minutes and then open the Google Play store, it will show me "No Connection" with a "retry" button. I press the button a couple times and it finally loads the store.

What I've tried so far:

- First, I use TWRP V2.4.0.0

- I tested different roms, including SlimStar V2.2, AOKP 4.2 build 3, All Star slimbean and SUPERLITE CM10.

- I played around with the Sync button, tried on and off but changes nothing

- I installed the stock Koodo radio over slimstarV2.2 but it didn't changed anything

- Tried Touchdown for smartphone, Touchdown HD and a beta version but they all have the same behavior in JB.

- Each time I flash a rom, I wipe everything (cache, davlik, Factory reset and System)

I'm kind of desperate, I've searched the forums for nearly a week now in order to solve this problem but I don't find anything. I can't believe I'm the only one with this problem?? :confused:

If anyone has a clue please tell me! Thank you very much!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rambobin0:
Nobody using Touchdown with a 4.x rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blackangst:
Have you tried setting up your hotmail acct as an exchange acct and using the stock email app?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rambobin0:
Yes but the main reason I use a third party email app is because I use folders in Hotmail and I want to see unread mails from all folders in a unified list. I searched this option in the stock email app but I can't find that feature. I have to manually select each folder to see the content.

I just tried Enhanced Email and it has the same problem as Touchdown. I see exceptions in the logs saying "Server failed to respond". So I think it's definitely a rom issue since it works flawlessly with ICS (Koodo V4.04 stock and Koodo 4.04 V5 optimized rom from ptmr3) with the same radio. But I would like to know if someone else has the problem to rule out the possibility of a problem with my phone.

Thanks

Edit: Looked again in the logs and I can see that the "Target server failed to respond" exception is happening when the app sends a ping to the activesync server. The other connections seem to be working well though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rambobin0:
More info from the Enhanced Email log file:

In wifi mode:

- The app sends a ping to the activesync server with a timeout value of 470sec

- 470sec later, I see "Ping response: 200" and a ping status of 2

Then the operation continues connectly

In 3G mode:

- The app sends the ping with a timeout value of 470sec

- 30 sec later, I get an IOException: Target server failed to respond

So I don't know why, but it looks like there is a timeout check only 30 sec after the ping is sent in 3G mode. I don't think it's a script or a mod that causes this as I have the problem with the AOKP and CM nightlies builds.

Anyone has a clue?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Rambobin0:
Hi,

Just to say that I tried the latest AOKP 4.2.2 build (jb-mr1 Build 5) tonight and the problem is now fixed!! I don't see any "No Connection" message in Google Play and the push timeouts are gone!

Now hopefully the fix will be integrated to the CM roms too.

[Microsoft Surface] jsgiv:
Wanted to see if any others out there with the Surface Pro has differing hardware in their Surface Pros?

To get to the point - I originally purchased my first SP at Best Buy - only to return it to the local MS Store a few days later due to a screen issue and exchange it for a new one.

Two key things noted:

First SP started with a serial number of "011xxx" and had a Micron mSATA drive (as noted in iFixit's Teardown) - but 128GB instead of 64GB.

My new SP has a serial number that starts with "029xxx" and has a Samsung mSATA drive instead (128GB - Model number SAMSUNG MZMPC128HBFU-000MV) ...

Just interested if anyone has similar differences in hardware and also if anyone knows how to "decode" the serial numbers to figure out where they're made - date of manufacture, etc.

Also of note - the new SP actually has a warranty date through May 17th (15 months) instead of the 12 months from the one I got from Best Buy originally - not sure if that's due to the swap/exchange at the MS store...
[Microsoft Surface] Trig0r:
Maybe the delays here in the UK are down to MS struggling to get hold of as many mSATA drives as needed, I wouldnt of thought they were that popular before now...
[Microsoft Surface] jsgiv:
It's hard to gauge if they're actually that "popular" in the US currently, or if MS actually has a supply chain problem and didn't make enough of them....

My first SP was only 1 of 5 that came into the store last Saturday morning (better than the 1 of "zero" that came in on launch day).

The second SP was really a stroke of luck, in that I have 2 MS stores. When I called the support line to start the exchange process - the CSR called the stores for me and - again pure luck - one of the stores had one (due to another buyer only buying 1 surface instead of 2 that he had originally requested). The CSR had it held for me and even when I got there, I had to argue a bit to make them go back and check and get my replacement (the sales rep there thought he had none until he went and checked with his manager).

I did notice while waiting for him to confirm that 4 other people came in during that time to pick up their SPs... So I believe that they're starting to slowly trickle in. In fact, yesterday, one of the other BBY stores that I had placed my name on their list called me to notify me they had one ready to pick up if I wanted it... Told them to release it to the wolves.. :P

Back on topic: Looks like AnandTech confirms what my suspicion is:

http://www.anandtech.com/show/6756/microsoft-surface-pro-msata-ssd-upgrade-dangerous-but-successful

"My review sample included a 128GB Micron C400,

while I've seen reports of users getting Samsung PM830 (OEM SSD 830) based drives.

"​

Though I'm not entirely sure if my model has the PM 830 or an entirely different model ....
[Microsoft Surface] Trig0r:
Given the amount of time its taking to get the Pro here in the UK and given I already have an RT I'd be tempted to wait for the Pro2 now, 4th Gen i5 and larger drives perhaps....

Hi all great developers!

I have a small request from your expertise as I've tried everything I could but still could not achieve the desired results.

Since I've enabled software (screen) keys following this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2032117

There is a virtual navbar at the bottom of my Note 2 (N7100), just like what Galaxy Nexus has and it works awesome because given the big screen of Note 2 it only takes up lesser than an inch on the screen but provides the convenience of not having to press the hardware home button frequently.

However there is a side effect after enabling it, where the Contacts now showing an additional Menu Bar and the stock Camera shutter button being half-covered by the virtual navbar. Please refer the screenshot below to get a better picture:

Contacts (SecContacts.apk)

--Kindly refer to the attached screenshot--

Camera (SamsungCamera.apk)

--Unable to take screenshot of the Camera--

Anyone with soft (screen) keys enabled can provide one? :cool:

Please download both mentioned APK's from dropbox links below. They are extracted from stock XXDMB2 deodexed.

SecContacts.apk:

[Galaxy Note II Themes and Apps] Deleted member 2086469:
For

Contacts (SecContacts.apk)

I think the menu bar can be hidden by tricking the system that the device "HAS" the menu key (theoretically is by setting qemu.hw.mainkeys=1), however this will hide the Navigation bar aka soft keys.

My problem now is having to *keep* the navigation bar (ie. qemu.hw.mainkeys=0) but to hide the overflow menu bar.
